99.927. Powers of authority exercised by board — quorum requirements, meetings, officers, expenses, removal. — 1. The powers of the authority created pursuant to section 99.921 shall be exercised by its board of commissioners. A majority of the commissioners shall constitute a quorum of such board for the purpose of conducting business and exercising the powers of the authority and for all other purposes. Action may be taken by the board upon a vote of a majority of the commissioners present in person or by teleconference, unless in any case the bylaws of the authority shall require a larger number. Meetings of the board of the authority may be held anywhere within the municipality.
2. The commissioners of the authority annually shall elect a chair and vice chair from among the commissioners; however, the first chair shall be designated by the mayor for a term of one year. The mayor or chief executive officer of the municipality shall serve as the co-chair of the authority. The authority may employ an executive director, technical experts, and such other officers, agents, and employees, permanent and temporary, as it may require, and shall determine their qualifications, duties, and compensation. For such legal services as it may require, an authority may call upon the chief law officer of the municipality or may employ its own counsel and legal staff.
3. A commissioner of an authority shall receive no compensation for his or her services, but may receive the necessary expenses, including traveling expenses, incurred in the discharge of his or her duties. Each commissioner shall hold office until a successor has been appointed.
4. For inefficiency or neglect of duty or misconduct in office, a commissioner of an authority may be removed by the mayor or chief executive officer of the municipality.
